Strict new law coming to South Africa has a glaring problem

South Africa's new zero-tolerance policy for motorists is set to come into effect, but concerns have emerged over its glaring omission: the exclusion of drunk pedestrians. While the law aims to crack down on intoxicated drivers, its narrow focus raises questions about the effectiveness of the policy, particularly when it fails to address a significant contributor to road fatalities. The success of the policy now hinges on how well it is enforced, and experts warn that the absence of measures to tackle intoxicated pedestrians could undermine its overall impact.
